A proposal for the creation of mixed police patrols between the RG Police and the Guardia Civil is one of the matters under discussion in the ongoing technical round of talks of the Tripartite Forum, according to reports in the Madrid daily ABC.

The newspaper which notes the background of “continuous incidents between Guardia Civil patrols and Royal Navy and RG P vessels in waters around the Rock”, states that the technical delegations are considering the possibility of joint operations.

ABC reports that there are other judicial and policing proposals on the table which are being discussed including mechanisms for commission rogatoire, European Arrest Warrants, and the setting up of joint maritime patrols to pursue delinquents at sea.

ABC adds that there will shortly be an environmental disaster exercise in the bay with units from Spain, UK and Gibraltar taking part.
